Compared with other compounds in its class, the molecular weight of 160.21 g/mol gives tert-Butyl 3-hydroxybutanoate distinctive chromatographic separation conditions and mass-spectrometry parameter settings.
CATO supplies tert-Butyl 3-hydroxybutanoate (CAS 90435-23-7), a certified reference material (molecular formula C8H16O3, MW 160.21 g/mol) for analytical method development and quality control.
The molecular framework of tert-Butyl 3-hydroxybutanoate (C8H16O3) is characterized by a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage. In reversed-phase chromatography, its retention is governed primarily by the polarity and ionization state of its functional groups, which provides a practical basis for HPLC-UV/DAD or LC-MS method development.
Recommended for analytical method development and validation; each product is supplied with a full Certificate of Analysis (COA) ensuring ISO 17034 metrological traceability.
As a certified reference material (CRM), tert-Butyl 3-hydroxybutanoate meets the metrological traceability requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 laboratories. Batch-to-batch consistency is monitored via control charts to guarantee comparable assigned values across lots.
